Horror movie musicals are few and far between; and GOOD horror movie musicals? Unheard of! Lucky for you, listener, we got our hands on one—Anna and the Apocalypse (2017)—and critic, author, and podcaster Alonso Duralde returns to help us break it down. Additionally, we chatted iconic DVD menus and subversive Xmas movies so press play and giggle all the way!

Attention, cinephiles! We have Alonso Duralde—acclaimed film critic, author, and podcaster—joining us to talk Anna and the Apocalypse (2017). Before that, though, we chatted about his delightful (recently-updated) book Have Yourself a Movie Little Christmas, how horror traverses genres, and the politics of the “Tomatometer.” Press play now and have a scary little Christmas!

Elizabeth Sparkle is beauty, grace, and…oops she forgot to respect The Balance and now she’s hairless and covered in warts! This week, director Amir Moini is back and we’re chatting the immediately-iconic The Substance (2024)—a movie that’s, among other things, a deeply French version of Death Becomes Her (1992) featuring a god-tier Demi Moore performance. Press play and remember that You Are One!

This week on the pod, we’re joined by a Slashr king! Yes, you read that right “Slashr” director Amir Moini stopped in to chat about 2024’s Mother-centric The Substance! Before we got down to that business, though, Amir gave us some insights into his horror origins, his directorial journey, and his bloody-good short film Slashr.

If it isn’t the birthday girl! No, we’re not referring to Jesse (born on 12/1). We’re talking about Maika Monroe’s Lee Harper and, by extension, Nicolas Cage’s Longlegs! A Recent Cinematic Mothers Month would simply be incomplete if we didn’t cover Longlegs (2024)—a movie featuring prominent mothers, devil(s), and one of the most unsettling openings of the last decade. Listen to this ep backward if you want to get real freaky ;)

It’s giving Pilgrims, It’s giving Boston accents, It’s giving thanks.

Superman as a s*x pest? Scarecrow affair?? Emma Stone [Australian accent]?! If you haven’t guessed it, we’re chatting the pastiche, Mother-filled masterpiece that is Pearl (2022) this week! Raise your hand if you think Mia Goth should’ve been nominated for an Oscar!

Gotta love Recent Mothers Month! This week, we’re covering a banger that features one of the best cinematic rug pulls of the 21 century: Barbarian (2022)! Zach Cregger’s masterpiece—which has a perfect Justin Long performance and an absolutely terrifying Mother—is about parallels, perspectives, and bad men, among other things. We don’t recommend watching it in public!
